Bradley married 'osErh II
her, he being a widower By his first wife,
formerly Miss Lucy Sherman Tuttle, of New
Haven, Conn, he had five children, of
whom but two survived him, Thomas Brad
ley and Mrs. Williams, both of whom were
present at his death. 1t was the peculiar for
tune of the deceased lawyer to be connected
at widely separated periods with several
of the most dramatic episodes in the
history of the United States. He was born
in Washington, March %, 1903, while his
father, Abraham Bradley, was first assistant
postmaster general-an office he held almost
continually from Washington to Jackson.
From 1921 to 1924 Joseph was employed in
the Office of the clerk of the supreme court of
the United States; in the last named year he
was admitted to practice, and for fifty years
was an active lawyer in Washington. In
1881. and for some years after, he was cor
poration attorney for that city; he was as,
sociated with Hon. D.. W. Voorhees, in the de-
Tense of Miss Harris, and his skill prevented
the conviction Of Surratt.
This last case, perhaps, made him best
known to the country at large, as there was,
and still is, in the public mind a vast
amount of uncertainty about that case; the
conviction and hanging of Mrs. Surratt
on substantially the same evidence-cer
tainly no stronger-as that which was
brought against her son, who was not
convicted, left a very painful impression
an impression heightened recently by tho
fact that one of the chief witnesses against
both has been detected in illegal practices. 1t
will be remembered that Judge Fisher, who
presided ut the trial Of Surratt, disbarred Mr..
Bradley from further practice in the district
'for disloyalty to the government" in defend
ing Surratt. BradleJ challenged the judge,
who, however, paid no attention to it. Brad
ley was reinstated n few years later.

The history of this addition of Al, 400 men
to the German army is a striking illustration
of the way they do things nowadays in the
Fatherland. Last November bismarck in
formed the reicbstag that the tone of France
was threatening, and that he must be guar
nnteed n larger army for seven years "to in
sure peace" The Liberals in the legislative
body opposed his bill; In January it was de-
feated; he dissolved the reichstag at once and
ordered q new election; the people sustained
him by electing members favorable to his
bill; the bill without amendment or modih-
cation became n law within sixty days after
its defeat, and ON the LIST of April, 1887, the
new army is an accomplished fact. Until the
list Of April, 1891, the government has legal
power to maintain this enormous army in
peace and as many more as thoy need in war.
1t is scarcely necessary to add that Germany
is now the great military power of the world
and her neighboIs absolutely ut her mercy
unless they organize in like manner. Her
army Is wonderfully efficient, too, its ell
cheney maintained at the highest point by
constant exercise and practice of all the evo-
lutions Of war. Our engravings represent
squads at practice. The discipline is very
sever
To make the force effective the law creates
two division stalls, four brigade staffs, and
one cavalry brigade staff; and two new di-
visions are Great 81, to be known us the Thirty
second and Thirty third divisions of the Ger
man army. The Al, 400 new men will be
formed into five full regiments and fifteen
detached battalions of infantry of the line,
one battalion of light infantry, twenty-four
batteries of field artillery, twenty-one COM
pnnies of foot artillery heavy seige) nine
companies of railway troops, one of pioneers
and fourteen of the train or supply corps.
The remaining troops will be distributed
among existing companies. And the extra
expense for the new troops will be A, o 0,OO1
marks per year-about S11 ,G00, 600. The so
called railway battalion is drilled to a very
high state of efficiency in Germany, as rail
roads are there run by government in time of
peace far more extensively than they ever
were here in time of war; and the pioneer
companies in like manner nave charge of the
field telegraphy; so n well drilled German is
. not only a thorough soldier, but he has some
thing like a technicIl education as well. To
summarize, Germany now has at her COM
mand 534 battalions, 465 ~squadrons, 3G4 bat
teries fully horsed, 81 foot batteries, 10
pioneer and IS train battalions, all conve-
nient to the frontier and to be reached by
telegram Mt ten seconds notice; so Bismarck
complacently informs the country that he
now considers himself prepared for "~unfore-
seen emergencies

Bismarck has had his way, and for the next
seven years the German regular army will
consist of 1854 o men, instead Of 427 900, as
1t has been for some years past. And this
enormous army is only the nucleus, as the iron
chancellor very pleasantly tells us-"it is only
to resist the first shock and permit the COM
pletion of the general mobilization" In
plain English, these 46S,4O9 men are the per-
manent peace establishment, only n guard, as
1t We're, to stand Off the French till n real
army can be raised; and, if necessary, they
can put into the field almost every man be-

The prospective increase in foreign i'm
migration, together with the noteworthy
fact that all the anarchist demonstrations
ana much OF the labor trouble has been
due to foreign influence, is creating a
healthy public sentiment on the subject.
This shows itself, however, not in old
know.nothing fashion, by discriminating
against citizens offoreign birth or refusing
equal privileges to n~aturalized citizens,

IRELAND might possibly endure further

THERE are doubtless plenty OF men OF
the dynamiter style in the United States,
but England does not need to import ras-
Gals of any kind. Her apprehension of
danger from this country, whether real or
feigned, Is inconsistent with the condi-
tons required for the atrocious work of
the bomb thrower. His materials are
innocent in themselves. and only acquire
their deadly force when combined. The
British or Irish conspirator so reckless as
to resort to such weapons would expert
ence no more difficulty than the Russian
Nihilist-under a surveillance more strin-
gent than any free government dare exer-
cise-and would be no more dependant on
foreign importation either for materials or
for competent instructors in the desperate
work.

ST.. LOUIS, August 10. The Globe
Democrat prints sensational story
about blood successor of Joseph

nance, but lacks Coniirma-
ton. About twenty five years
ago the little town OF Nauvoo,
ILL.,, headquarters of the Mormon
church of the Mississippi valley, WAS
startled by story in which Joe
Smith, in 1912, figured as the lover OF
u dashing English maiden OF wealthy
family, believers in Mormonism, and
who were travelling in America. The
prophet wished to take the girl as his
spiritual wife" and she consented
with the condition that II lie bore a
son he, sin the fulness of time" should
become the head of the Mormon
church. A son was born and for teal
of foul play from other chill
drcn OF the Smith family
too numerous to mention--the
mother fastened with her child TO

Cambridge university, proper creGs

repubished by Lebsrrou Harrington,
man of note in the Mormon church
at salt Lake City, Utah, for the pur.
pose, it is thought, OF injuring the
prospects OF the ambitious Smith of
the present day, and perhaps with
tho intention of bringing the
central figure of tie story
who would now be Is years old be-
fore the church as IL claimant to tic
